extreme

Asian dishes. - Oooh. - I do not want that. - That? It's going to get intense! - Eugene is torturing us. - I'm going to try to eat as little

food

as possible. You know why? Because my tongue is screwed. The secret is out, everyone. I have geographical language. - I feel like the three dishes I've chosen cover everything from spooky to slimy to spicy. - Try Boys Party

adventure, something! (upbeat music) - Okay, so the first restaurant I'm going to is this amazing place called Typhoon.

It is a pan-Asian fusion restaurant. You are going to eat insects. - That? - What kind of errors? Because lobsters are insects. (bell rings) - Keith's arm is on me. It's just that you're... - It's just because of you, because your elbow is in my stomach! - Because the back seat is narrow, because we're in your stupid car. - Children! - That? (upbeat music) - Hello, my name is Brian Vidor and I am the owner of Typhoon, here at the Santa Monica Airport. - So you were working in Asia, you moved here and opened Typhoon. - Yes. - You were inspired by some of the different snacks and street foods in Asia. - Street foods, you have it, yes. - Yes. - The crickets were in Taipei Beer Gardens and the silkworm pupae are from Thailand.

More and more people come here for the insects. They taste pretty good. - So these are Taiwanese-style crickets? - I had a lizard that ate crickets. They looked like this. - That's a big old plate of bugs! - Do you want to feed each other? - Sure. (upbeat music) - Mmm. - Oh no, it's great. - It's almost like eating the skin of fried chicken. - I had a leg at the back of my throat for a second. - They keep jumping on my chopsticks. - Extremity, I'm going to say, like one. It's not that extreme. - No, I would eat this as a snack. - Bugs are beautiful. - Wow! - They look like little chicken nuggets. - I don't know if they look like chicken nuggets.

They look like insects. - Ribbed for your pleasure. - Oh please. - They are very popular in many Asian countries, especially in Korea, where we call them Beondegi. - Butt digger. (upbeat music) - Oh no! - Eh, I didn't expect that. - Oh! - Gentle. - Oh, it just explodes. (upbeat music) - It tastes a lot like corn. - Tasty and moist hay. - Oh, I could see a horse going to town on this. (horse neighing) - And these are worm babies. - Damn, you can see through it. Oh God why? Because? - It is not the most pleasant experience. - Errors in general, somewhat extreme.

Quite tasty and always looks like a plate of bugs. - Cut to the car! ♫ I ate too many bugs ♫ Oh Lord, I ate too many bugs ♫ - So we leave the bug place, what's next, Eugene? - We are making some kind of aquatic creature. - Well. - Like a lobster? I love lobsters. - Think more about sucking. - A kind of sucking fish? - Let's eat live octopus. - Oh! - Guys, why was the octopus laughing? - Because? - Because he had ten tickles. (laughs) Let's eat one. - Alright

, we're here in Koreatown, at Wassada Restaurant, and in a lot of Korean and Japanese cuisine, things are so fresh that they're still basically alive. - This seems crazy. - So sea urchin, or uni, is quite expensive. - It's a delicacy, right? - Yes, it is a delicacy. - Is that your butt? - It looks like the tip of a nice, sexy starfish.

You know, some starfish look like shit. - Eat it. - Alright. What was that? - Wow, that's amazing. - It's like buttery. - I don't know what I just tried. - Where does butter come from? - It's really complicated. He tastes like melon is meat. - This is how locust blood tastes. - I like to call this the foie gras of the ocean. -Who would have thought there would be something so good inside this coffee straw coconut? - Does anyone have bread? - Oh no! - Oh no. - There goes that shirt. Do you have something to remove this stain?

The video can wait, okay? I don't want this to get stained. - And the best part is that you can just, like... - Oh, a toothpick! - I mean, it's hard, not extreme. - But it's an animal and we're eating its gonads. - Alright. - One of my favorite dishes, Sannakji, which is what we call live octopus. It's a recently alive octopus. - Does it move? - Does it move. This is especially common in Korea and Japan. - Oh! - Is that your eyeball? - Oh! - Oh, look, you have one! (gagging impression) - Oh, he won't let go. - Oh, that feels so weird. - Oh, I don't want to do it. - And go!

Chew, chew. - Oh no. Oh no! - Oh, Zac. No, Zach, no! - Do not die! - It is moving? - No! Actually, I do not know. - My wife loves me. - Oh, it's stuck in my throat. - Oh, oh. - It's stuck to the top of my mouth! - He wouldn't let go of my lip. - As you know? - It's very chewy. - It's like seafood gum. - It's really delicious. - I mean, you can't get any cruder than this, right? - No, this is the freshest food I've ever had. - This is the most extreme thing I have ever eaten. - I'm afraid of swallowing this big one. - You're fine with one more restaurant, right? - I feel it trying to grab onto my intestines. - I know!

I think it's like trying to get back into my esophagus. - I'm still eating it. (laughs) - What? - So we had mistakes. - We had mistakes. - We had sea creatures. - Yes. - And now we're going to do something pretty tame. Know? Something quite tame for the end. - Well. - Simply the spiciest dish in Los Angeles. - Eugene, my tongue is screwed. - So, let's go to a Thai restaurant called Jitlada. - Oh, I love Jitlada! - We know that you have something called 'The Dynamite Challenge'. - Yes, you should try. It's really good and spicy. - How spicy are we talking? - One to ten? - Yes, ten being the largest. - Ten. - I am nervous.

I am anxious. - We both love spicy food. I basically grew up on spicy food. - I have chosen a piece that I like, it does not have any visible spice. - Yes me too. - I'll make it spicier, I'll make it spicier. -And just before they start, keep the shouting to a minimum. - Yes, Eugene, we will keep our shouting to a minimum. - Do you want to put everything in our mouths? - We should not? - Okay, ready? - Go! (suspense music) - Oh, God. (clearing throat) Oh! - Oh Lord. - Fuck me, fuck me, fuck me. - Keith, are you okay? - No-uh. - Oh no! (gagging noise) - I think I'm going to throw up. - Oh, I'm already farting. - Oh! - There's like a fountain of saliva-- - There's a... - Oh!

Delicious taste. (blowing his nose) - Oh, it's getting worse, it's getting... - The most absurd dish in Los Angeles. - I'm doing cunnilingus with a piece of cucumber. That's how much pain I have. - I'm crying? I'm sweating? - They cure all diseases. Heals Eugenio. (laughs) If I eat them, maybe I'll be cured too. Dear Jitlada. Their 'Dynamite Challenge' was the last stop on our Extreme Asian Food Tour. We're sorry for everything, but we love you! I can't stop burping, Ned. Farting, Zach. Crying, Eugenio. Die, Keith. With love, the test boys. ♫ I can feel the fire ♫ - This was just the battle.

The war will be fought in my bathroom all night. It's a good thing my wife is out of town. -Keith, how about I look for Italian food next? I'm italian. Italians have a very interesting cuisine, like pasta. (Car door slams) Oh, my friends are gone.
